I'm more afraid they'll find enough use for it to make it not a bubble.

When governments use it to model individuals behaviors, it may never pop.

What happens when Big Brother is a learning model ?

You make an excellent point. But like the dot com bubble, most big players always stand the test of time. Smaller AI businesses will either get merged with big corps or the big fishes will come out with a better alternative.

yeah, the .com bubble popped because all the vc's were promised return on investment, and sooner or later they figured out there wasn't nearly as much money in it as they were promised.

I'm kind of concerned that we're the mainstay of the product.

I'm concerned that they get enough data to ask: what is the minimum amount we can pay Rumba before they leave or become unproductive?

How much will Rumba be willing to pay for this concert ticket?

I'm worried that there are enough realistic ways to nickel and dime me out of money that they really screw up life for people.
